Schweid & Sons The Signature Blend Smashburgers
What it is
These are pre-formed ground beef patties designed for making smashburgers. The blend is crafted to provide a rich beef flavor and good texture when pressed thin on a hot surface. The patties are made from a specific combination of beef cuts, selected for their taste and cooking properties. They come ready to cook, saving time in meal preparation.
How people cook with it
These patties are ideal for creating classic diner-style burgers at home. They are best suited for high-heat cooking methods that encourage a good sear.
- Quick weeknight dinners
- Backyard barbecues
- Casual entertaining
- Family meals
For the best results, heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the frozen patties onto the hot surface, leaving space between them. Immediately use a sturdy spatula or burger press to firmly smash each patty down into a thin disc. Cook for about 1-2 minutes per side, until a deep brown crust forms and the burgers are cooked through. Season with salt and pepper during cooking. Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
This blend is specifically formulated for the smashburger technique, aiming for a balance of fat content and beefy flavor that crisps well. Unlike some ground beef, it's designed to hold its shape when smashed and develop a desirable crust.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking to easily prepare delicious, restaurant-quality smashburgers.
How to keep the rest
Keep the package refrigerated until ready to use. If not cooking all the patties at once, transfer any remaining uncooked patties to an airtight container or resealable bag and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For longer storage, they can be frozen.
